For those unaware. Nintendo will provide free design pattern replacements online. So you can also buy the game digitally and home make all the pieces needed with cheap cardboard/plastic/bands/etc. Probably will save a few $$ if you are crafty enough.
"IGN France confirmed that Labo Kits won’t actually be required to play Labo games, the cartridge or download will be all that you need. Cardboard design patterns for the various games will freely be provided online, meaning that you can replace or build parts with just about any material, provided you’re crafty enough. Here’s what was said by Nintendo:"
